INDONESIAWayang Kulit Kulit means “skin”, a

reference to the leather material that the figures are carved out of.

INDONESIAWayang Kulit is derived from a

Javanese Hindu-Buddhist tradition, where hand-crafted leather puppets depict epic stories of the gods in shadow play

WAYANG KULITThe Show The puppets are moved behind a cotton or

linen screen by a Dalang, or a “puppet master" in a shadow puppet play.

The Dalang tells the story, interprets and voices for each character, producing sound effects with speech and movement and manipulates all the figures between the lamp and the screen to bring the shadows to life.

WAYANG KULITThe Show Most shadow play is based on two epic

stories from India - the Mahabharata and the Ramayana.

The Balinese and Javanese have combined the Hindu stories with Buddhist and Muslim ideas mixed with their own folklore.
